Stalking the Cat

A year ago no one would have guessed that we would be locked at home, separated from our friends and family, struggling to keep our emotions and feelings in check.

On top of it all, the weather has been pretty dry and sunny for a while now, tempting people to leave their houses and break the confinement rules. While some of us are staying put and being good we read about others that go to the beaches, have fun, who knows how careful they are....

Not very fair is it!!

So to occupy myself the other day I stalked the cat in the garden with my camera...Why not..For me it was fun... Doing your hobbies and things you enjoy helps make the time pass faster and it is definitely more entertaining.

NICE TO SEE YOU and HAPPY EASTER

 OK.  I admit, it has been a while since I was here in this blog.

Why..Well I suppose, life, work and all the rest..never enough time for this, never enough time for that...and my most favourite thing to do suffered the most.

It is sad really. When we let life takes us where we don't really want to go.

But today I decided to come back with a few images from Connemara, images that I cherish .

So nice to see you again and hopefully I will stick here for longer this time.

By the way HAPPY EASTER

and just to keep the spirit of Easter here is something I made yesterday

  

FOOTPRINTS IN THE SNOW

OK. If this is all the cold, frost and snow we are going to see this winter, 

it is not bad at all!!

We had a few days in the falling snow and it is enough, 

now I am waiting for the green and listening to the chirping birdies outside my window.

I took some great shots out there in the bogs for the last few days

 and that will keep me going for a while.

Now! Bring on the spring flowers and the bright warm sun!

MOODY WINTER DAYS

There are days when the weather can be as moody as any person around us.

One moment clear sky, the next foggy and drizzling quietly or blasting gales and rainbows in between...

If that is not moody, I don't know what is... 

Because this is how it's been for a while now and everyone around me is either sick or moody as hell...

What shall we do? 

Well, I go out and take some photos to chill and mentally cool down. How about you?

Killarainey Woods Walk, Moycullen

I know some people don't even think twice about doing this walk since they live just right next to it but hey, we are not all neighbors all right?!

We went there on a cloudy grey weekend day with the two boxers and boy was that a mistake..It was so muddy and full of people... 

The dogs had a blast meeting so many furry friends but I am not really fond of mud up to my ankles (really in some parts) but it is a very popular walk so a lot of people come here with dogs, kids and friends.

I prefer something more secluded and peaceful..So I can let the dogs run and play while I take photos..

But every path is worth exploring and this is definitely the place to go if you are looking for a leisurely walk with the kids.
